Animus Distillery Barrel Aged Gin 2021 (500ml)

It's been a while since Animus have dropped their famed Barrel Aged Gin to the masses. Luckily, while we have been waiting, this release has been resting, a little longer this time - 20 months, with the majority in Cloud9 Pinot Noir casks and then finishing in new French Oak. 

The base is a lemon-forward, Christmas spice-heavy variant of Animus Macedon Dry. The added citrus and spice have worked wonders with the subtle wine and oak notes picked up in the barrels. Deliberately bottled overproof at 55.9% ABV this Gin has an incredibly long and oily finish. Drink it neat, on ice with some lemon zest or mix to your heart's content, there's plenty of interest to play with here.
